History
Royal Army Era
Republic Era
Modern Era
The Baltican Armed Forces were established shortly after the end of the Baltican Civil War. At first, the army was in the control of the Individual Republics of Baltica, although after the formation of the Baltican Central Government the entirety of the Armed Forces were gradually transferred to the Central Government. Under Juozas Vejas, all of the Armed Forces have seen a gradual modernization, especially through the purchase of ships and aircraft from other nations.

The Baltican Land Forces are large and divided between 4 Brigades consisting of a mechanised brigade, two infantry brigades and an artillery brigade. The National Defense Volunteer Force is also a part of the Land Forces, contributing to the national defense of important urban and military assets (Most notably the capitals of each of the Republics of Baltica). The Baltican Engineer Battle Battalions are also a part of the Land Forces. Altogether, the Land Forces consist of 67 thousand personnel. Ramutia acts as the sole military HQ of the Land Forces, although plans are currently in place to create three further facilities in Southern, Western and Eastern Baltica.
The Baltican Navy consists off over 8,331 personnel. The Navy is made up of the Warship Flotilla, the Sea Coastal Surveillance System, the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Divers Team, the Naval Logistic Service, Training Center and Maritime Rescue Coordination Center. The flotilla is the core component of the Navy and consists of the Mine Countermeasures Squadron, the Patrol Ships Squadron, and the Harbour Boats Group. The current Commander in Chief of the Baltican Navy is Head Admiral Yvo Falk. The Naval base and Headquarters are located in Port Svoyev in the Republic of Belgorta.The Navy uses civilian ships for coastal surveillance in the short term, whilst further ships are being acquired.
